R.I.P. SUMMER 2009!
See also: 2008, 2007, 2006.
It happens every summer. I should have seen it coming! But, alas, my sleeping habits and internal clock/body clock/biological clock (can’t remember which one talks about your sleeping cycles and which one is about having a baby before you’re too old) are once again completely thrown off and I’m up late into the night.
It is now 11:37 P.M. and I’ve just spent the last two hours trying to clear some space on my computer and to delete/organize the big mess of files that has amassed on my hard drive. I think I’ve done pretty well, though. Here’s my desktop:

See? When I stay up at night I’m at least productive. I could be sitting around eating and watching TV, but I’m (sort of) cleaning. Thanks to my efforts, my desktop is now clean and wonderful (and less embarassing). Plus, I got rid of 3GB of crap! (PS – RIP Billy Mays! :[ So unfotunate.)

Five new pairs of flip flops for summer. Pretty awesome. I love Old Navy. :)
So, I walked outside this afternoon to get the mail and there was a turtle sitting outside on the sidewalk! He was all curled up inside his shell and I was afraid that he was gonna lay in there and bake to death because the weather is finally season-appropriate. I thought for a minute about picking him up and taking him to the forest (or at least the grass) but I was afraid that he would bite me and give me tetanus or rabies or something so I just took a picture of him and kept walking. I’m guessing he did not die and was able to retreat to a shadier place because he’s no longer anywhere that I can see him.
But the whole reason that I was getting the mail was because I was expecting a parcel containing a new iPhone case. And it came today! It’s a pretty dinky (but still cool-looking) silver plastic case but it came with a mirror screen protector. So now, whenever my iPhone is sleeping and the screen is off, I have an awesome mirror.
(PS – this is 30/365).
What month is it? I feel like the hands on my body clock have been spinning so fast that they flew off, leaving me dazed and confused.
I’ll start at the beginning. We had midterm exams two weeks ago. We were scheduled to have the Monday after midterms off. That evening it snowed two or three inches and we had off of school on Tuesday. Then, on Tuesday evening it iced and we had off on Wednesday, also. After being off for almost a whole week, I was discombobulated enough and felt like we had winter break all over again.
We had a two-day week last week, which threw me off even more. Then, yesterday, it was 60 degrees. I had to check myself and remember that it was February. The warm weather is still lingering today (it’s 50 degrees at the moment), but it’s supposed to snow tonight.
Help me.

I got a gift card to go buy an iPhone 3G. And tickets to go see Kathy Griffin live in DC next month. And gift cards to Old Navy and Barnes & Noble. And an awesome shirt. And Jericho season 2 on DVD (including alternate, unaired ending). And on top of all that amazing stuff, I got to celebrate with some amazing people.
I think I’m gonna like being 16.
It’s still August. This still should not be happening.

It’s August. This should not be happening.
